Sooo, My first monotub worked out 95% awesome, amazing pin set, awesome flush's. Everything perfect except no matter how much mushrooms i ate, i felt nothing but a little body buzz.

Questions: i'm pretty sure i used about a 1 ta 6 spawn/sub ratio. It worked out fine, no contams and only took a week and a bit to colonize. Now although it all worked fine, could the low spawn to sub ration be a cause of weakers shrooms, or does the less spawn compared to sub, just increase time/contam rate/etc???

Orrrr was my weak shrooms likely due to genetics?? My drying techniques were all correct, since i have used them before with 100% success.

I plan on trying a monotub here in a few months, I wana knock down like 50 PF Jars before I try it.

I'll likely use BRF Jars for my first tub as well.

Thanks

i only did one brf cake, before trying mono, i found mono to almost be less of a hassle then the cakes. less misting watching humidity etc.. if i were to recommend what to start with to someone, i would always say monotub first, it just seems so simple so why not right.

use more spawn next time. coir and poo are mostly just a filler for the tub BRF and WBS are more nutritious than coir or poo. i just know i have seen a decrease in potency when i try to stretch my spawn
